Effect of hinged leaflets on vortex pair generation

We experimentally study the effect of having hinged leaflets at the jet exit on the formation of a two-dimensional counter-rotating vortex pair. A piston-cylinder mechanism is used to generate a starting jet from a high-aspect-ratio channel into a quiescent medium. For a rigid exit, with no leaflets at the channel exit, the measurements at a central plane show that the trailing jet in the present case is never detached from the vortex pair, and keeps feeding into the latter, unlike in the axisymmetric case. Passive flexibility is introduced in the form of rigid leaflets or flaps that are hinged at the exit of the channel, with the flaps initially parallel to the channel walls. The experimental arrangement closely approximates the limiting case of a free-to-rotate rigid flap with negligible structural stiffness, damping and flap inertia, as these limiting structural properties permit the largest flap openings. Using this arrangement, we start the flow and measure the flap kinematics and the vorticity fields for different flap lengths and piston velocity programs. The typical motion of the flaps involves a rapid opening and a subsequent more gradual return to its initial position, both of which occur when the piston is still moving. The initial opening of the flaps can be attributed to an excess pressure that develops in the channel when the flow starts, due to the acceleration that has to be imparted to the fluid slug between the flaps. In the case with flaps, two additional pairs of vortices are formed because of the motion of the flaps, leading to the ejection of a total of up to three vortex pairs from the hinged exit. The flaps' length (L-f) is found to significantly affect flap motions when plotted using the conventional time scale L/d, where L is the piston stroke and d is the channel width. However, with a newly defined time scale based on the flap length (L/L-f), we find a good collapse of all the measured flap motions irrespective of flap length and piston velocity for an impulsively started piston motion. The maximum opening angle in all these impulsive velocity program cases, irrespective of the flap length, is found to be close to 15 degrees. Even though the flap kinematics collapses well with L/L-f, there are differences in the distribution of the ejected vorticity even for the same L/L-f. Such a redistribution of vorticity can lead to important changes in the overall properties of the flow, and it gives us a better understanding of the importance of exit flexibility in such flows.

Synthesis of novel beta-aryl-beta-(methylthio)acroleins via Vilsmeier-Haack protocol as potential 1,3-dielectrophilic three-carbon building blocks

A new general route for the synthesis of novel beta-aryl-beta-(methylthio)acroleins, a class of stable potential 1,3-dielectrophilic synthons, has been reported. The overall protocol involves treatment of either beta-chloroacroleins or their precursor iminium salts (generated in situ from the corresponding active methylene ketones under Vilsmeier-Haack reaction conditions) with S,S-dimethyldithiocarbonates (DDC)/aqueous KOH in either a one-pot or two-step process. The dimethyldithiocarbonate (DDC)/30% aqueous KOH has been shown to be an excellent source of methylthiolate anion. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Comportamiento productivo de cerdos alimentados con desperdicios de cocina y residuos de galleta en la dieta, bajo distintos porcentajes de inclusión

El presente estudio se realizó en la granja porcina de la Universidad Nacional Agraria (U.N.A), ubicada en el Km. 13 a los 86°. 09' 36" longitud oeste y los 12° 08'15" latitud norte de la comunidad de Sabana Grande, Municipio de Managua con un elevación de 56 m sobre el nivel del mar (INETER, 1987). La fase de campo fue realizada de Julio a Octubre de 1999, con el objetivo de evaluar el comportamiento productivo de cerdos en crecimiento, desarrollo y engorde alimentados con tres raciones diferentes: (T1) Desperdicio de Galleta 100%, (T2) Desperdicio de Galleta 75% + Desperdicio de cocina 25%, (T3) Desperdicio de cocina 100%. Se utilizaron 18 cerdos comerciales de ambos sexos, con peso promedio de inicio de 54.86 kg, que fueron distribuidos en tres tratamientos con seis repeticiones con los datos levantados de pesaje de los diferentes tratamientos, se efectúo el análisis estadístico correspondiente al diseño experimental completamente al Azar (DCA) y su correspondiente análisis para las variables en estudio, G.M D. y C.A. Los cerdos que presentaron una ganancia de peso más alta, fueron los que se alimentaron con la ración l00 % de desperdicio de cocina teniendo una ganancia media diaria de 0.758 kg. los cerdos alimentados 75 % DDG, + 25 % DDC, alcanzaron una ganancia de peso promedio de 0.578 kg. mientras que el tratamiento 100% DDG alcanzo una ganancia media de peso promedio de 0.17 kg. El análisis de la ganancia media diaria se demostró con una alfa de 5 %. El análisis estadístico mostró que las diferencias en conversión alimenticia fueron significativas entre tratamientos con un Alfa al 5 %. Al comparar las utilidades generadas entre el T t y T2, estos resultaron financieramente aceptables, de forma similar se comportaron el T1 y T3., no obstante, desde el punto de vista nutricional, estos no cumplieron los requerimientos de la categoría, por lo que el T2, se presentó finalmente como el más aceptable nutricionalmente.

高温空气的热力学性质

<正> 自从第二次世界大战末德国发明V-2火箭,特别是1957年苏联发射第一个人造地球卫星以后,航空和宇航技术高速发展,现在,飞行体的速度已远远超过第一宇宙速度(7.8公里/秒)。随着速度剧增,带来了低速飞行时不曾出现的特殊问题:一是高M数效应,一是高温对飞行介质的影响。高M数效应使得通常的Navier-Stokes方程失效。研究这方面问题,属于高速空气动力学范围。在实际问题中,高速必然伴随着产生高温,这两方面的效应交织在一起。热效应比起单纯的速度效应更本质,这使得高速高温流动现象及其介质性质的研究成为高温气体物理力学的一个最重要方面。

观测表明,在许多天体物理环境中,涨落场具有不可忽略的重要作用.本文在一阶光滑近似条件下,推导了普通湍流和随机波动两种条件下的磁流体静力学方程组,以及这些方程所要求的自洽性条件.在静力学问题中,涨落的洛伦茨力会对大尺度磁场位形有影响.具体研究这种影响对于解释观测的特征是十分必要的,特别是许多天体物理环境中,磁场(包括涨落磁场δB)是决定能量和动量平衡的重要因素.

基于红外热象技术的金属材料疲劳性能研究方法

金属材料的疲劳极限或疲劳寿命等性能是长寿命机械和结构抗疲劳设计的基本数据,探讨效率高、成本低而又准确的试验新方法,成为相关研究者十分感兴趣的课题。材料在循环载荷作用下产生的塑性变形经不断累积会引起疲劳破坏,这个过程所耗的塑性功绝大部分以热量形式耗散,因此寻找热耗散温度变化过程与疲劳极限及寿命之间的关系很有意义。就此问题,文中引入利用先进的红外热成象技术确定金属材料疲劳性能的试验研究方法,主要从原理和试验方法两方面进行介绍,并对45钢的试验过程和现象作较为详细地阐述,得到较准确的疲劳极限值和基于红外热象技术确定疲劳寿命的重要参量M。

从基本的无网格光滑粒子法SPH(Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics)近似出发,修正了模拟固体力学中大变形弹塑性碰撞的SPH方法.在边界处采用修正的边界条件,弹塑性分析过程中采用增量理论计算应力,迭代过程中用守恒光滑法进行滤波修正消除拉力不稳定.对SPH方法进行了程序实现,给出了杆弹塑性碰撞的算例.计算分析表明,SPH方法节点的影响域较大、精度较相同节点间距有限元法的结果有一定差距,但是通过增加粒子数量可以提高SPH的精度,保持了其简单性和计算大变形的特性.

A documentação de Paul Otlet : uma proposta para a organização racional da produção intelectual do homem

A pesquisa procura identificar e analisar as circunstâncias e motivações teóricas que levaram ao surgimento, no final do século XIX, da área de estudo denominada Documentação. Apresenta informações biográficas sobre os principais artífices deste projeto, os advogados e bibliógrafos belgas, Paul Otlet e Henri La Fontaine, que visaram ampliar a compreensão sobre o meio social e cultural em que atuaram. Procura ampliar a discussão sobre os fatores que motivaram em 1895 a proposta de organização racional de toda a produção intelectual do homem. Apresenta em linhas gerais a visão abrangente e integradora da Documentação que eliminando barreiras físicas, acessava acervos arquivísticos, bibliográficos e museológicos para o registro integral dos assuntos pesquisados. Discute a utilização da Classificação Decimal de Dewey (CDD) na criação do Repertório Bibliográfico Universal e analisa o processo que levou ao surgimento da Classificação Decimal Universal (CDU). Conclui sugerindo a inclusão desta visão extensiva e integradora da documentação ao referencial teórico da Ciência da Informação. Sugere que o resgate deste aporte teórico poderá contribuir para um melhor enfrentamento dos problemas da gestão do conhecimento registrado, produzido e acumulado até os dias atuais, nos mais diversos formatos, suportes e repositórios.
